Don't pretend, everyone knows you're the villain!

Wen Xianling felt a pang of anxiety and, feeling uneasy, texted Xie Yuan to inquire about Xie Sicen's recent situation.

Xie Yuan first calmed Wen Xianling down, but when she received Xie Sicen's message, her heart sank.

[Mother, I think I might be in trouble.]

Xie Yuan didn't have time to worry about any training or anything like that. She led her carefully selected personal guards and rushed to the border without delay.

Xie Sicen initially had the upper hand because the enemy didn't react in time. Later, when she was noticed, she began to flee in her mecha in a sorry state.

No matter how powerful you are, you can't withstand a large number of enemies, but destroying seven enemy mechs by surprise is definitely worthwhile.

Xie Sicen thought that such an outcome was about right, enough to significantly turn the tide of the battle.

Thinking he could find an opening and escape unscathed, he found himself surrounded by rows of mechs, with enemy soldiers below him.

This was a situation that should have been anticipated: infiltrating deep into enemy territory.

0561 watched as the mechs and crowds surrounded him.

His face was filled with panic. "Host... this is really bad."

A look of seriousness flashed across Xie Sicen's eyes, while a disdainful smile appeared on her face.

"It's alright. Unless they completely destroy my mech, they're too inexperienced to keep me here."

Encouraged and inspired by Xie Sicen's calm and collected tone, 0561 regained his confidence.

However, it will not be easy for Xie Sicen to break through the encirclement.

With artillery fire raining down on you, even the smoothest and most fluid mech piloting keeps you on edge, sweating bullets.

Fortunately, with the help of this skillful movement, the opponent dared not easily use powerful offensive weapons again.

Xie Sicen's evasion and movement trajectory were too unexpected, causing the enemy to accidentally injure many of their own men.

Having stopped using lethal weapons, the enemy began to focus more on encirclement and destruction of mechs.

Xie Sicen kept launching disruptive counterattacks while dodging.

Every dodge was precisely calculated and executed flawlessly, causing Xie Sicen to get closer and closer to their own camp.

The mech's damage level was constantly issuing warnings.

The damage value rose uncontrollably and wildly. With a roar, a long sword slashed into the left side of Xie Sicen's mecha.

The one raising the long sword is a mecha entirely in pure red.

Xie Sicen was stuck, and despite several attempts to accelerate, she couldn't break free from the long sword's grip.

"Damn it." Xie Sicen was surrounded by enemies who caught up from behind as she struggled.

With more than half the journey to the camp still to go, it's really funny that they got caught now.

Xie Sicen had no intention of hesitating or getting caught up in indecision at this point.

The self-destruct program is quickly entered, and the mech automatically begins a countdown.

Xie Sicen emerged from the warehouse just seconds before the explosion.

The timing was all calculated; too early would alert the enemy, and too late would result in mutual destruction.

Xie Sichen couldn't estimate how far the leopard could run or how much damage it could avoid by relying on its speed.

The extent of injury is not taken into account at this time; as long as it's not certain death, everything is fine.

Xie Sicen had only one thought—he had to win the first battle and return alive, because there would be many more battles to fight.

A black panther's shadow flashed in front of the enemy forces surrounding Xie Sicen's mecha. The enemy leader wasn't stupid; he immediately ordered a retreat.

As soon as he finished speaking, the mech surrounded in the center exploded with a loud bang, and flames engulfed the surrounding area like a curtain.

This time, not only did the enemy discover Xie Sicen's attack, but even their own troops were startled and hurriedly left their tents.

"Host! How are you? You're covered in blood..."

Even if Xie Sicen sprinted with all her might, she couldn't avoid being affected, but she could greatly reduce the impact. It was still much better than those unlucky souls who perished together with the others in the central mech bay.

Xie Sicen grimaced in pain and lay on the ground for a long time without moving.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes with a furrowed brow, looking at the little ball that was worried about him.

"You...can't die..."

He's not going to die anytime soon, but if no one comes to rescue him, he probably won't survive.

0561 looked at the shards and debris embedded in Xie Sicen's body, which were bleeding profusely. He spoke very quickly to Xie Sicen, who was leaning against the rock without moving, and said, "Host, I can buy emergency medicine here to bandage her up and stop the bleeding."

Xie Sicen was not only affected by the fragments, but also by the impact with the rocks, and now her whole body is engulfed in intense pain.

You can't feel the blood loss at all.

Xie Sicen moved her lips with difficulty and said in a soft, breathy voice, "No... need."

Now, let alone exchanging them, even if I did manage to exchange them, I wouldn't have the ability to use them. In this situation, I can only lie here and do nothing.

If Lady Luck smiles upon you, then wait for someone to come to your rescue; if no one comes to your rescue, then wait to die.

Xie Sichen's consciousness gradually became hazy and unclear. She vaguely felt that there was a lot of noise around her, which then returned to silence.

Xie Yuan was hanging by a thread, suppressing her anger. Her general's will kept her calm at all times. But since it concerned Xie Sicen, her only child with Wen Xianling, she couldn't help but panic.

When Xie Yuan saw Xie Sicen lying motionless on the battlefield covered in blood, her scalp tingled and a chill ran down her spine.

Even breathing stops.

If Xie Yuan hadn't been able to feel her breath, she would have regretted it for the rest of her life. As long as she was still breathing, there was still hope.

Hurry up, don't delay even for a second, take the person away.

Xie Yuan sent Xie Sichen to the border with the intention of helping Xie Sichen advance steadily and step by step. She never expected that Xie Sichen would do such a crazy thing behind her back and the entire border war zone.

The child she and Wen Xianling raised wasn't a little brat at all; he was clearly a little madman.

He recklessly charged into enemy territory, disregarding the consequences. He somehow acquired the mech and even orchestrated its explosion.

One person almost destroyed most of the enemy's mech defense line, not to mention that he also annihilated many of the enemy's ordinary soldiers during the retreat and evasion process.

Xie Yuan rushed Xie Sichen to the emergency room, and the battle situation at the border was completely reversed because of Xie Sichen's surprise attack.

The credit for turning the tide of the battle rests entirely on Xie Sicen, who was in critical condition in the emergency room.

Xie Yuan waited anxiously outside, not daring to utter a single word to Wen Xianling.

The more people who know about this, the more heartbroken they become.

Fortunately, Xie Sicen was resilient and survived.

No amount of blood was spared, and the Empire's most advanced medical equipment was all brought in using Xie Yuan's authority.

We finally got out of the emergency room, and now we're just waiting for him to wake up to check his recovery.

Xie Yuan had never thought Xie Sicen was the kind of person who was eager for quick success, but now that she had thrown him onto the battlefield, she was no longer so sure.

Xie Sicen dared to do this, completely disregarding her own life. To win a battle, she risked her life to turn the tide. So what did Yin Zhaoshu mean to her little brat?

She valued Wen Xianling's life above all else, but Xie Sicen clearly didn't follow her example in this regard.

Xie Yuan stayed by Xie Sichen's side for a week, handling all the important matters via communication, while Xie Sichen remained unconscious.

It wasn't until Friday of the second week that Xie Sicen finally managed to weakly open her eyes.

The surrounding area was filled with medical equipment; it was clearly not an ordinary facility.

Upon seeing Xie Yuan, Xie Sicen managed a weak smile on her pale face and said feebly, "Mother..."

Xie Yuan said in a stern voice with a straight face, "I thought you had forgotten that you still have family. You're so brave, disregarding life and death."

When Xie Sichen sent Xie Yuan a message, he actually left himself a last resort. He was betting that Xie Yuan wouldn't just abandon him at the border.

But regardless of whether he wins or loses this gamble, he will not return unscathed.

Xie Sichen laughed heartlessly, making Xie Yuan swallow all the barbed words she wanted to say.

Next comes the slow recovery. Xie Sicen's role as a major contributor this time was truly hard-won; she risked her life and almost died on the border battlefield.

After resting for more than half a month, Xie Sicen, an alpha, has a strong ability to recover and is already able to get out of bed and walk around.
